Cortina Wing Stays

Hi
Has anyone got any plans for wing stays for Cortina hubs that use the dust plate mounting points rather than the ball joint nut for a fixing method.

Cheers
RD

I posted a few pics of ours that use the dust cover holes on this thread, about 1/2 way down on the 1st page.

HTH, Andy

Not plans as such, but here's a thread showing how I made stays from flat bar bolted to a triangular plate which fixes into the dust plate holes with spacers

Thanks Guys

I thought of using triangular plate & picking up on dust cover threads, my only concern with this approach is that it presents more "sharp" edges for the SVA man to pick up on..........
